History TookALevelInBadass / FanWorks

* After her suit is destroyed and she's gravely injured in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10578266/9/Silly-but-Killy Silly but Killy]]'', [[Franchise/MassEffect Tali]] is given Limm Goo and Fightin Juice to possibly save her life. As a result, she becomes part Ork.

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11568253/1/Supernova Supernova]]'', Luffy eats a Logia Fruit that turns him into a [[PowerOfTheSun Sun Man]] and learns Rokushiki from his grandfather. He also goes on to teach is crew Rokushiki. As a result, ''Nami'' beats Krieg and Zoro manages to use RazorWind by Arlong Park. By the time they reach Loguetown, all three have the highest bounties in the East Blue (50 million for Luffy, 30 for Zoro, and 20 for Nami).

In [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11668913/1/Redeemers-Assemble Redeemers Assemble]], multiple characters do this. [[spoiler: Ultron rips his old body in half with his new one to threaten Attuma, flies headfirst into an orbital strike, and almost dies to boot, Abomination lifts the city of New York to stop it from sinking, and Red Skull sends a wave through a portal '''INTO THE SUN''']]

** The G1 Mane Cast get this as well, the Rainbow of Light having made them TheAgeless. What do they do with it? Spend several thousand years kicking the flank of any monster who dares threaten Pony Kind. This includes [[spoiler:managing to ''beat Discord'' in a straight up fight (though unfortunately, he managed to escape)]] and beating back Grogar (who in this universe also counts as this trope, being a DangerouslyGenreSavvy EvilOverlord who can go toe to toe with ''[[RealityWarper Discord]]'') every 500 years. Of note are Mimic, who managed to fight Discord head on and ultimately break his tooth ''permanently'' in a DyingMomentOfAwesome, and Shady, who [[spoiler:[[FaceHeelTurn was Discord's]] TheDragon and ultimately redeemed herself by holding him in place for the Princesses to beat him.]]

* ''FanFic/WhenAPonyCalls'' and ''FanFic/TheAlchemistHeart'': Over the course of the series, Soren/Silver Script has gone from an inexperienced teenage boy turned female pony, to holding his/her own against Twilight, to fighting monsters in the Everfree, to charging {{EldritchAbomination}}s with a shot gun in a BadFuture.

[[AC:''WebAnimation/RWBY'']]* [[ButtMonkey Jaune Arc]] in ''Fanfic/TheGamesWePlay''. [[UpToEleven Repeatedly]], and [[LevelGrinding rather literally]]. One day, his life becomes a video game. One year later, [[HolyShitQuotient he's dragging]] the [[BigBad creator of the Grimm]] "kicking and screaming up the Tree of Life."** The Grimm take a [[PuppeteerParasite few]] [[TheDreaded levels]], [[{{Kaiju}} too]].

* ''Fanfic/ThousandShinji'': In the original series, the main characters were humans with average abilities. Here, Shinji becomes a sorcerer with psychic powers and fulgurkinesis, Asuka a SuperSoldier and Rei a {{Plaguemaster}}.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'', Shinji and Asuka are more experienced and better fighters than their canon selves, since their immaturity and psychological issues aren't holding back their potential.
